  • Community and Politics in Antebellum New York City Irish Gang Subculture James
    The Communal Legitimacy of Collective Violence: Community and Politics in Antebellum New York City Irish Gang Subculture by James Peter Phelan A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in History Department of History and Classics University of Alberta ©James Phelan, 2014 ii Abstract This thesis examines the influences that New York City‘s Irish-Americans had on the violence, politics, and underground subcultures of the antebellum era. During the Great Famine era of the Irish Diaspora, Irish-Americans in Five Points, New York City, formed strong community bonds, traditions, and a spirit of resistance as an amalgamation of rural Irish and urban American influences. By the middle of the nineteenth century, Irish immigrants and their descendants combined community traditions with concepts of American individualism and upward mobility to become an important part of the antebellum era‘s ―Shirtless Democracy‖ movement. The proto-gang political clubs formed during this era became so powerful that by the late 1850s, clashes with Know Nothing and Republican forces, particularly over New York‘s Police force, resulted in extreme outbursts of violence in June and July, 1857. By tracking the Five Points Irish from famine to riot, this thesis as whole illuminates how communal violence and the riots of 1857 may be understood, moralised, and even legitimised given the community and culture unique to Five Points in the antebellum era. iii Table of Contents Introduction ...................................................................................................................................

    LIMITED OFFICIAL USE—LAW ENFORCEMENT SENSITIVE//FOR OFFICIAL USE ONLY U.S. Department of Justice National Drug Intelligence Center New York/New Jersey High Intensity Drug Trafficking Area Drug Market Analysis 2011 LIMITED OFFICIAL USE—LAW ENFORCEMENT SENSITIVE//FOR OFFICIAL USE ONLY LIMITED OFFICIAL USE—LAW ENFORCEMENT SENSITIVE//FOR OFFICIAL USE ONLY Source Summary Statement (U) The National Drug Intelligence Center (NDIC) has high confidence in this drug market analysis as it is based on multiple sources of information that have proved highly reliable in prior NDIC, law enforcement, and intelligence community reporting. Quantitative data, including sei- zure, eradication, and arrest statistics, were drawn from data sets maintained by federal, state, or lo- cal government agencies. Discussions of the prevalence and consequences of drug abuse are based on published reports from U.S. Government agencies and interviews with public health officials deemed reliable because of their expertise in the diagnosis and treatment of drug abuse. Trends and patterns related to drug production, trafficking, and abuse were identified through detailed analysis of coordinated counterdrug agency reporting and information. NDIC intelligence analysts and field intelligence officers obtained this information through numerous interviews with law enforcement and public health officials (federal, state, and local) in whom NDIC has a high level of confidence based on previous contact and reporting, their recognized expertise, and their professional standing and reputation within the U.S. counterdrug community. This report was reviewed and corroborated by law enforcement officials who have jurisdiction in the New York/New Jersey High Intensity Drug Trafficking Area and possess an expert knowledge of its drug situation.

Jan Vokněr ANOTACE A KLÍČOVÁ SLOVA Abstrakt: Tato bakalářská práce se zabývá problematikou organizovaného zločinu, přesněji řečeno Cosa Nostrou v USA. Je zde popsána historie, vznik, tradice, vztahové vazby mafie jako uceleného tajného společenství na Sicílii a její přesun do USA koncem 19. století. V práci jsou popsány principy chování mafie a její důsledky na široké okolí v rozdílných časových souvislostech. Práce je rozdělena na teoretickou a praktickou část, teoretická část je naplněna informačním minimem o problematice k vytvoření si bližšího náhledu. V praktické části se věnuji analyzování získaných informací z knižních zdrojů. Součástí práce je i nastínění hlavních úseků v časové ose, ve kterých se podařilo regulátorům tohoto nestátního aktéra o dočasnou či úplnou eliminaci nezákonných aktivit mafie. Práce je doplněna o vlastní názor či doporučení autora, jak by do budoucna měla být tato problematika řešena.
